Chapter 149: Get used to being cheated and it will be okay

Remembering the process of obtaining the Dragon Blood Stone, Mu Hanyan became even more certain that this Dragon Blood Stone was definitely different from those of legend.

Thinking of this, Mu Hanyan couldn’t help but get excited. The more extraordinary the Dragon Blood Stone, the greater the enhancement to her strength. No wonder she was so excited, for in this lifetime, her thirst for power was unprecedentedly intense.

But soon, Mu Hanyan felt something was terribly wrong. The tidal waves suddenly became violent, one after another rushing towards her like a ferocious beast awakened from deep sleep, ready to engulf and tear apart the intruder in its territory.

Immense pressure squeezed from all directions, and Mu Hanyan felt a blockage in her chest, her breathing becoming chaotic as if even her breastbone would snap.

"Not good!" Mu Hanyan gathered her Qi around her body to resist the formidable pressure and finally managed to catch her breath.

Mu Hanyan’s expression grew heavy. Although she had momentarily caught her breath, the relentless red torrent seemed infinite, wave after wave. It wasn’t just a challenge for her, at the Sixth Rank Swordman Peak, but even a Great Swordsman or a Swordsman in the later stages might not be able to withstand it.

She had to leave immediately! Mu Hanyan made a decisive call.

Unfortunately, entering the Dragon Blood Stone was not intentional; it was purely accidental. Now, leaving was not as easy as she had thought.

Mu Hanyan originally thought that she had entered it because her Mental State had been focused on looking inside the Dragon Blood Stone, and she could leave just by withdrawing her Mental State.

But soon, she realized she was wrong. Even when she completely detached her Mental State from the surrounding world, entering an empty clarity, she still couldn’t escape the entrapment of the Dragon Blood Stone, still deeply mired within it.

"What should I do now?" In this moment of urgency, Mu Hanyan once again instinctively asked the Star Illusion Thousand Machine for advice.

Sadly, this time, the Star Illusion Thousand Machine didn’t offer any help, hanging silently at her chest without any reaction.

"You can’t be serious, to actually be in Deep Sleep at a time like this? This is a matter of life and death; you can’t just stand by and watch me die," Mu Hanyan urged anxiously in her mind.

The Star Illusion Thousand Machine still didn’t react.

"Hey, if you don’t help now, I’m done for, and so are you!" Mu Hanyan shouted.

According to legend, a mythical artifact recognized by Blood Recognition has spiritual essence and guards the Divine Soul of its owner. Should the owner meet an untimely death, the artifact would also disintegrate, losing all spiritual essence. Mu Hanyan’s words were essentially a threat.

Unfortunately, faced with her threat, the Star Illusion Thousand Machine still showed no response. Perhaps the legends were false, Mu Hanyan couldn’t be sure.

No other choice now, it was time to fight for herself. Just great, at this crucial moment, the device was silent, what a setback. Oh well, one gets used to it. Mu Hanyan resigned herself to the fact that she seemed to have grown accustomed to being let down by this device.

With no other options, Mu Hanyan could only rely on herself. She circulated her Qi to resist the overwhelming pressure that came wave after wave like red tidal surges, while retreating backward with agility.

The Dragon Blood Stone was only the size of a fist after all; its inner space was surely limited. There had to be an edge; if she could just escape to the edge, then break through the inner wall, she would naturally be able to escape to freedom.

At this point, Mu Hanyan hadn’t heard of the Sumeru Nucleus, nor did she know that the size of the space within such artifacts was not proportional to their external volume.

But the truth quickly made itself apparent to her—after fleeing forward at full strength for five or six hours, she still hadn’t reached the edge of the Dragon Blood Stone. Instead, the boundless red ocean stretched out before her eyes.
